The folks at Fox Movietone News had put this great film of the National Anthem with the words at the bottom. But at the end, it says "Help Keep 'Em Flying,
...
Buy War Bonds NOW!". This was produced during World War 2. I wonder if many of the TV stations elsewhere in the 60's, 70's and 80's would run the same film using the war bonds tag at the end during one of the TV sign-off's and sign-on's using the Fox Movietone News banner after the station's conclusion where the announcer was saying "This concludes our broadcast day". Excellent film.

Of the two sing a long Star Spangled Banner films on here, I like this one the best, as it has more dramatic singing and some rather questionable editing.
...
As you can see in the movie scenes, one of the images makes it look like the flag is on fire, an image which most people would feel uncomfortable with.
